Bob’s Breeding Services

By Elton Camp

To supplement farming’s meager pay
Bob came up with a fairly easy way

It was hard for neighbors to keep a bull
Seldom used, but must keep his belly full

So Bob put his bull out for folks to hire
For the stud, they often came to enquire

One day, while Bob was gone to town
His next door neighbor came around

It was, for him, quite an awkward case
About a matter, the wife he had to face

“Tell me what it is you want,” she said
The neighbor’s face turned bright red

“It’s about him impregnating my daughter.”
Sweat dripped from his face like water

“For using the bull, fifty bucks is the fee,
The charge for that, it’s Bob you must see.”
